IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 1999-03-09
Abstract: A method is provided for isolating and purifying viruses from a plant host which is
applicable on a large scale. This method is more efficient than virus isolation methods
described in the prior art. In general, the present method comprises the steps of
homogenizing a plant or plant tissue to produce a green juice, adjusting the pH of the
green juice and heating it, separating the target virus species from other components of
the green juice by one or more cycles of centrifugation, suspension, and ultrafiltration,
and finally purifying virus particles by such procedures as polyethylene glycol-precipitation.

Abstract: A motor structure resistant to liquid intrusion features two modules, the first having an electronically commutated external-rotor motor ( 20 ), which motor comprises an internal stator ( 22 ) that is arranged on a bearing tube ( 30 ) and is separated by a first air gap ( 24 ) from an external rotor ( 26; 92 ), which latter comprises a rotor cup ( 40 ) that is open at one end and is joined at its other end to a shaft ( 46 ) that is journalled in the bearing tube ( 30 ), further having a permanent-magnet arrangement ( 76 ), arranged at the open end of the rotor cup ( 40 ), for magnetic interaction with a second permanent-magnet rotor ( 92 ), forming part of the second module. The first module is separated from that second rotor ( 92 ) by a second air gap and forms therewith a magnetic coupling ( 94 ), so that a rotation of the permanent-magnet arrangement ( 76 ) brings about a rotation of that second rotor ( 92 ). A hermetic separation of the two modules is accomplished using a non-ferromagnetic separating element ( 82 ) arranged in the second air gap. The second module can safely be used to handle liquid, e.g. as a pump.

Abstract: In a parking assistance apparatus disclosed herein, when a lateral parking mode switch is set at an initial stop position A, a controller calculates a backward movement start position B for parking based on a yaw angle and a steering angle of a vehicle, and issues guiding information to stop the vehicle upon having determined that the vehicle has reached the calculated backward movement start position B. After having sensed that a shift lever was shifted to a reverse position, the controller displays on a display an image captured by a camera as to an area behind the vehicle, and also displays on the display in a superimposed manner an estimated vehicle space in the case where the vehicle moves backwards while maintaining a steering angle at the time of the shift of the shift lever. The driver operates a steering wheel so as to establish a suitable positional relation between the estimated vehicle space and a target parking space on the display, whereby an appropriate steering angle is obtained in moving the vehicle backwards.
